{"title":"Bloomfield wine","description":"\u003cp data-start=\"0\" data-end=\"792\"\u003eBloomfield is the creative side project of Lauren Hansen — wine nerd, self-confessed dork, and devoted dog mum to Morrie. The idea was born many moons ago in university lectures, where Lauren would doodle imaginary wine labels, and finally came to life in 2024. In her day job, she is the senior winemaker at Penley Estate in Coonawarra and a dux of the prestigious Len Evans Tutorial (yes, it’s as fancy as it sounds). Her winemaking journey has taken her across numerous wine regions, working alongside talented winemakers, tasting extraordinary wines, and doing the less glamorous work too — scrubbing floors, driving forklifts, and spending long hours in the cellar. Bloomfield is her chance to not only make her own wines, but also dive headfirst into the world of sales and marketing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"794\" data-end=\"1508\" data-is-last-node=\"\" data-is-only-node=\"\"\u003eThe debut release features three small parcels from across the Limestone Coast — Grüner Veltliner from Mount Benson, Petit Verdot from Wrattonbully, and Mencía from Mundulla — each chosen for its unique character and regional charm. The name “Bloomfield” holds deep personal meaning: it’s her mum’s maiden name, the name of a special patch of native Australian scrub where family gathers around the campfire, and a nod to the fierce, brave women who shaped her. Inspired by her mum’s mantra — “if you want to be a truck driver, be a truck driver, just be a bloody good one” — Lauren has channelled that spirit into winemaking, crafting small-batch wines that are thoughtful, vibrant, and unapologetically personal.\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"bloomfield-wine-gruner-veltliner-2024","title":"Bloomfield Grüner Veltliner 2025","description":"\u003cp data-rte-preserve-empty=\"true\"\u003eZesty. bright. textural. kind of like a spicy riesling.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-rte-preserve-empty=\"true\"\u003e3 days skin contact to get all the delicious goodness out of the skins. three months of lees contact in old french oak to build a little extra texture.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-rte-preserve-empty=\"true\"\u003egrown by Anita in Mount Benson.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-rte-preserve-empty=\"true\"\u003eAlc\/Vol: 11.5%\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bloomfield wine","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42687303483601,"sku":"726436608008","price":40.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0550\/6662\/4209\/files\/regions_bloomfield_grunerveltliner2024.png?v=1754471355"},{"product_id":"bloomfield-mencia-2025","title":"Bloomfield Mencia 2025","description":"\u003cp\u003espicy. floral. juicy. a delicious plush spanish red. chill it if you like.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003esome words from Cyndal Petty on the 2025 Mencia (which she gave 95 points…)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e“Blackcurrant juice, red fig paste and graphite. This is a terrific example of a (chilled) red that absolutely hits its intended marks. It feels honest, chewy, bouncy, vibrant and instantly likeable. A reminder that the act of drinking wine, at its core, is about enjoying flavours that bring people together through shared enjoyment and pleasure. Made in an easy-to-understand, modern style, its drinkability dares you to dismiss it. But beneath that ease, purity and fruit density, is scrumptious chocolatey tannins, giving the wine strong architecture and intent.  In the mouth, the fruit is concentrated and sticky, with poached rhubarb, black plums, sage and toasted gum nuts. There’s also a ferrous layer of terracotta powder and spicy blood sausage that adds muscle. It finishes savoury, with torn shiso leaf, sustained length and a gentle bitterness. Drink it slightly chilled, while watching MAFS.”\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"\" data-rte-preserve-empty=\"true\"\u003eAlc\/Vol: 13.0%\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bloomfield wine","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43262448763089,"sku":"16109","price":40.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0550\/6662\/4209\/files\/regions_bloomfield_mencia2024_ba04e03b-3bba-48e9-a93c-26fe64fbfc78.png?v=1787311626"}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0550\/6662\/4209\/collections\/bloomfield_clipped_rev_1.png?v=1754785413","url":"https:\/\/regionscellars.com.au\/collections\/bloomfield-wine\/2025.oembed","provider":"Regions Cellars","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
